In colonial days, Vischer Ferry was an important crossing of New York’s Mohawk River, and a historic village. As you think of those bygone times, you’ll quickly fall in love with this Burley and black Cavendish mixture with a rich, deep vanilla flavor that will remind you of some of your favorite desserts. Easy on the tongue, this is a smooth, easy smoking blend with perfect balance.

Fairly heavily topped, the aroma at the tin is that of deserts or cotton candy. It kinda reminds me of the food aromas at the state fair. The vanilla is apparent, but not overpowering. The topping ingredients seem to be of good quality. There is still enough tobacco flavor that it doesn't feel like smoking a bowl of Skittles.

No bite, burns to a nice clean ash. It's a little moist, so pack accordingly. Wife note is very good - a very "social" smoke. Will likely buy this one again from time to time.

Vischer Ferry is part of the new Landmark Series from Pipes and Cigars. A mixture of Burley and Black Cavendish, Vischer Ferry, like most aromatics arrives a little moist and needs some dry time. Living up to the tin description, VF has a deep vanilla flavor and it's sweet, but not overly sweet. VF is pretty straight forward in taste and doesn't suffer any metallic taste that I have experienced with some vanilla aromatics. There is no tongue bite to be found here, even when pushed. The bad news is that the one and a half ounce tins are expensive in comparison to Pipes and Cigars bulk aromatics. The good news is that VF is a cut above in quality. Recommended.
